Mammoth Sea Elephant At Berlin Zoo A Monster Specimen
A mounted monstrously large sea elephant, said to be the largest ever killed, is exhibited at the Berlin Zoological Garden. Found about 18 months ago by Falkland whalers, the carcass was bought by JFG Umiawff. Measurements suggest a massive animal with a two foot three inch skull and 18 foot body circumference, weighing around 1000 pounds. The creature, less ferocious in appearance, resembles a hippo in bulk and is notable for its distribution across hemispheres. It feeds mainly on cuttlefish and was once hunted across Antarctic islands for hides and blubber. The males' tusks reach four to five inches, hollow in females, and used for pipe bowls among sea hunters.
